The Quote View gives you a quick summary of any quote symbol. It shows all data that is available from the quote server for a single instrument.
This display is handy when you need additional information that is not currently on your quote sheet. Rather than inserting and deleting columns when you need to see, for example, Open Interest, just open the Quote View display.
To Open a Quote View:
- Select Quotes/Quote View from the Main Menu Bar
- In the Quote View display, type a symbol and press the Enter key.
All fields are in alphabetical order to make it easy to find the data you need.
To View a Different Symbol:
Type another symbol in the Quote View display, or double-click in the Symbol entry field and type the symbol.
